West New York woman is facing assault charges in attack on boyfriend's ex-girlfriend inside McDonald's restaurant

WEST NEW YORK — A local woman was charged with assault after getting into a fight with her boyfriend’s former girlfriend at a McDonald’s last week, police said.

Ines Marquez, 38, of Dewey Avenue, flipped a tray of food on the woman and a scuffle ensued, reports said. The victim was treated at the scene for minor injuries and Marquez was charged with aggravated assault.

Marquez left the restaurant, at Bergenline Avenue and 54th Street, after the assault on Sept. 26, and was arrested two days later. Her boyfriend, the victim’s ex, was present during the incident, but did not participate and has not been charged, police said.

Police say Marquez “flipped the food from her tray and hit and cut the girl’s nose with the tray,” reports said.
